The 2018 iHeartRadio Music Awards are set to take place on Sunday, March 11th at the historic Forum in Los Angeles. For the fifth straight year, the ceremony will celebrate the biggest songs and artists heard throughout the last year across radio stations nationwide and the iHeartRadio app ... and the nominees are in!
